A group calling themselves South Armagh Republican Action Force claimed this in retaliation for the murder of 6 Catholics the previous night,the HET say that the Provos were involved,there is talk the British Army may have been involved.The sooner there is a Truth commission that SF have been calling for to try and resolve all these issues the better.

Nairac himself was even implicated as possibly being there on UTV tonight. The plot thickens.
Nostalgia isn't what it used to be.

Few alright but not enough to stop a 30 year campaign,but of course once the IRA opened up its ranks it was bound to get the 30 pieces of silver men.

SF are conducting their own Truth Commission it seems -


Admission that IRA killed prison officer Brian Stack Prison officer Brian Stack was shot in the back of the neck
The IRA has admitted killing the only prison officer murdered in the Republic of Ireland during the Troubles.

Thirty years after the attack on Brian Stack, Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams has expressed his "regret" to the Stack family over the killing.

The family of the former Portlaoise chief prison officer had mounted a long campaign to secure the admission.

It came after Mr Stack's sons Austin and Oliver held talks with Mr Adams and a former IRA commander.

Mr Adams said he accompanied the two brothers to a meeting with a former IRA leader, who admitted the IRA shot their father in the back of the neck on 25 March, 1983.

Mr Stack had been crossing a busy Dublin street after leaving a boxing contest at the National Stadium when he was attacked.

"I want to pay tribute to the Stack family, to Sheila Stack and her sons, Austin, Kieran and Oliver," said Mr Adams.

"On behalf of Sinn Féin I extend my regret at the killing of Brian.

"I hope that these recent developments will help them achieve the closure they have sought for 30 years."

Brian Stack was left paralysed and brain-damaged from the shooting and suffered for a further 18 months before dying from his injuries at the age of 47.

Can't be true,sure Gaffer said if a Provo told the truth his teeth would fall out.

An IRA leader from '83 may not have his own teeth by now anyway !

There won't be a Truth Commission, too many vested interests have too much to lose.
Agreed, there won't be a Truth Commission, and anyone calling for it does so with the confidence that it won't materialise. It would be a pointless exercise - each side would continue to maintain that the other side hadn't told the whole truth and it's a lose / lose situation for all those with secrets to tell.

Take Gerry Adams for example - if, as part of a Truth Commission, the subject of Jean McConville is raised - if he admits to the allegation made by Dolours Price, then how does he maintain his position with any credibility? If he denies it, those who don't believe him now will maintain he isn't telling the truth, and that he's not playing ball with the Commission...

I can't see how it would possibly work.
